But the tech is wrong All the fingers should touch the strings )
Comment from : vDungeon

Can't even get the strings to ring out😢
Comment from : Davons Gaming4lyf

Disconnecting the ring finger from the pinky finger is the issue for me When I move one the other wants to move or follow Very irritating This exercise should help Thanks
Comment from : Dustdevilz

Comment from : DrawsWithFist

I've been playing guitar off and on for over 40 years That spider exercise where you leave your fingers planted is a complete, pain in the ass! hahaha I've already been playing simple solo's for years and making those solo's sound like the album, but I can't hardly leave my fingers planted when I move up & down the strings You made me feel like a complete beginner" hahaha Thanks for the lesson I'll go nuts practicing this but I do see the benefits of doing these exercises Thanks for teaching these technics Peace Joe

Whenever I feel like I need the work That rings true Putting down the guitar for any significant amount of time, requires that sort of practice in order to get the body back into the tool 🎶

My girlfriend taught me the fingerblaster exercise It only takes about 5 minutes to master but boy, do my fingers reek after practice!
Comment from : Beef

just doing it in the length of the video I saw better finger placement
Comment from : Carter Merriman

Thanks for this I’ve tried this practice but I get so frustrated because the notes don’t ring true but with you showing to start with just moving the fingers with no sound might help Are you still attempting finger placement as if you are ringing a note or just starting by getting the fingers used to the movement? Thanks!

John 3:16-21 (KJV) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting lifebrFor God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be savedbrHe that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of GodbrAnd this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evilbrFor every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reprovedbrBut he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in GodbrAwesome video btw

Comment from : JT Cooper

Comment from : humanoid bastard

Comment from : Musa Taha

Comment from : errors of november

All I was hearing this video was The Call of Ktulu by Metallica 😂
Comment from : Makimas Good Boy

I played for 20 years and I still have trouble running the scales With unevenness and time accuracy brI need to be patient and do this slowly and stop fartin around
Comment from : Here and Now 27

Having a really tough time anchoring my pinky on the string while moving my 4th finger up to the next string!! Great exercise sir 🫡
Comment from : Frank Nunzi

i cant seem to get the clearance with my pinky when doing this My fingers stay where i put them, but my pinky rolls on its side when i press down on the string and no amount of trying seems to get it to stop i have decent control of my fingers but i cant seem to activate whatever muscle governs my pinky to not turn itself sideways
Comment from : jonathan albee

@the doctor took a spider to walk
Comment from : Gabby Metcalf

My thumb hurts like crazy with this as my small hands struggle for finger placements I think I need to start with something that specifically trains for perfect finger on fret placement That's secondary in this exercise to ability to move across strings
Comment from : C B

My pinky barely touchs the E cord Let alone touch the E cord like a C shape I dunno what to do anymore
Comment from : Reitz

I gotta train my pink cause it’s weak and shaky and just jerking everywhere when I try to play, so for years I’ve omitted my pinky and only used my ring finger for its part
Comment from : Explorer812

Thank you very much

Google "metronome"
Comment from : Goofy8907

Good video! thanks
Comment from : Nayana de Silva

I don't know if this exercise was already a thing at the times but after listening to what you did around 4:37 i think it could be likely that the music of the song "Hey Joe" (whoever actually wrote it, it's not so clear) may have been inspired by it
Comment from : Mtt Lsa

it almost looks like The Call of Ktulu by metallica
Comment from : Fernando Zorro

Hi! Please please please let us save this video!
Comment from : andfoundout

Comment from : Kai Fritz

I only saw you playing the exercise I saw no results
Comment from : David R Wilson

Practice is invaluable and this is just what I was looking for Just excelent! Thank you for sharing this
Comment from : OSCAR EN UKULELE

Great exercise and really a challenge I've been playing guitar for 40 years Taught it myself, inclusive al the wrong techniques I really struggle with this exercise and was wondering what is the best spot putting your thumb during the walk(s)

Also you don't want to be using a metronome from your web browser Apps on a phone are fine - they have access to low-level timers Your browser does not
Comment from : AllDay Long

07:00 You don't play this the same every time Sometimes when you play the C with your pinkie you'll also play the F on the 5th with the pinkie Sometimes you don't
Comment from : AllDay Long

I will pick up the guitar i swear It has been sitting next to me for like 2 years now
Comment from : Help me

Thanks my man, i have been playing for over 30 years and used to be pretty good, however, 13 years without playing (I know, i should be punished, its a long story) anyway, the spider walk, ive promised myself to do this every spare minute, second i get Cheers much
Comment from : Thomas Williams

Any ideas on how to stop muting string below when moving fingers down from high E to A ?
Comment from : Cool Dot

Comment from : Kondwani Harawa

Ernie Ball 101good exercise for dexterity and finger positioning Also for the many possible Changes that create whole new sounds and familiarize you more with the Fret Board
Comment from : Phillip Miller

Comment from : Manjil

Comment from : T Lee

To be fair you do look a GIT
Comment from : Chris Highcock

Comment from : Walter Good

Oooooooo Hotrails!! I Love your pickups!! 😊👍
Comment from : Asmongolds Mouth

if i do this leaving all my fingers on the previous string, moving from 6-5, etc, its hard, and my ring finger doesnt like me If I do it with the fingers hovering above the strings, its easy

Comment from : zakaria saih

The single greatest exercise you will do on guitar
Comment from : Damn Deal Done

What are the exercise that you're referring that will need 2 years to see results? 1:55
Comment from : cd ninja

7 minute in and I just can't make out what you're doing! I don't read TAB and I just can't see what you're fingers are doingso frustrating
Comment from : Sally Masson

This is cool and all, and i know the way to play fast is conservation of motion (look at michael romeo of Symphony X as an example) But what actual benefit does it have to retrain your fingers not to leave the strings, or is it just to make you more flexible etc? 🤔
Comment from : Joel Bagg

As a begginer Thank you Sir for this beautiful tutoriali don't speak English so much but thank you for sharing your talent to inspired others

What happened
Comment from : Andri4en

As a 76 Year Old I have hardly touched my Guitar in more than 16 or so Years This was due to being Forced into Retirement and Life interfering Now I've decided to start playing again as I Know that it will be good for my Old Head as well brThis Lesson is very inspiring and being clear, concise, fully explanatory, I believe it is the best way to get back on track again brThank you for this, you are very kind and it is much appreciated Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦
Comment from : Ben DeWet

I'm trying to start playing again, after a 20 yr break I understand the fixed finger spider walk, but don't understand the other? The progression is not clear to mebr Will keep watching Trying to learn what I missed in my original playing (self taught) years before youtube and the internet
Comment from : 4202cvinc

the first ttry of the exercise made me forget how to move my ring finger
Comment from : Keiron Roberts

Thank you so much for your help I find your courses interesting and extremely helpful I am at 70-year-old beginner of these exercise help a lot for my non-number fingers thanks😊
Comment from : Anthony Aquilano

I’ve seen variations of this exercise from a lot of different videos, I’m curious to know what you believe is the advantage of doing it this way where each finger is held down until the moment you play the next note as opposed to having each finger floating? Is it a hand strength thing?
Comment from : BitterSteel

great lesson, as a beginner i am only able to do the 1st excersise but come back for the rest when i get a little better
Comment from : Reindeer Bermy

2 years 😮 better start now
Comment from : The artist formerly known as JesseSayWhat?

My pinkie interferes with the next string specially on the movement from 6th to 5th I cant find a position in which it will allow me to play the next string clean Maybe m y pinkie not strong enough
